Field Point/Broadhead Question

If your fp's spin true and your broadheads are the same weight and also spin true, won't they hit in exactly the same place? I've never shot a broadhead before season as long as it was the same weight as the fp's I sighted in with. A friend told me to shoot a broadhead anyway just to make sure so I did. Hit in the same spot as I thought it would. The only reason I can think of that a broadhead would hit different is if it wasn't mounted correctly. Is this correct or do I need to shoot a broadhead on every arrow just to make sure?

A well tuned bow should place your broadheads with your field tips. Fixed blade broadheads tend to plane out of a bow that is not in tune.

Do a search on broadhead tuning. There is quite alot that goes into it. If your broadheads are hitting with your field tips, then your all set.
